Perhaps you find something useful here, but be aware that these programs are quite old, mostly. This is an archive.
The little programs on this page are all free, but I cannot guarantee compatibility with Windows Vista or Windows 7 / 8 and there will be no more updates - use at your own risk.
Microsoft .Net Framework Version 2.0 is required for some programs.

PacWorld
Play the old classic arcade game in this new version, with six worlds and twelve levels,
beautiful graphics and sound effects, bonus items, offscreen tunnels, locked rooms and highscore!

The screenshots show the Forest and the Desert world, there is also City, Ice, Night and Fire - with two levels each!

Card Game "1001"
A very nice card game I used to play with my mom and my sister, when I was a kid.
The rules are not hard to learn and there are some nice extras in the game, so I promise it won't get boring.
With sound and evaluation. Card colors and player names can be changed, settings are saved.
Please note that my Palm OS version of this game (available from the Palm OS page) plays better and has more features - it also includes an emulated Windows version available in the distribution.

Bubble Game
Move the mouse to the border of two adjacent bubbles and click -
they change places and when two or more bubbles with the same color come together, they vanish slowly,
making room for the next ones, falling from above.
Try to remove all 128 bubbles!

Block Game
A nice, addictive game in the Color Tetris/Dr. Mario style.
Move four in a row with the same color to make them disappear.
Use the cursor UP key to change the ORDER of the colors within the falling block, and the cursor DOWN key to make it fall faster.
There are 3 different block styles to choose from and you can choose a fixed level or increasing levels from the options menu.
With sound. Settings and highscore are saved to disk and loaded the next time you play.

Wow, a new Highscore! I just managed to hit the PRINT key before the game was over. Played in Level 5 without automatic increase. Try to beat that!
Update: Well, obviously someone has! Don Crowder, a dear cyberfriend of mine, used to be an addict of this game, his latest screenshot proved an incredible 71586 points highscore!

Recall the Melody
Not only for kids. If you have a musical ear, repeat the chancy melodies if you can.
Use the right mousebuttton to hear the note before pressing a wrong key, but try to do without it.
False notes are marked with a worried smiley. Several options to change.

Simple Paint
This little painting program is intended to teach small kids to handle the mouse and have fun with colors and shapes.
Use 40 different colors and 10 different sized brushes or use the 15 available clipart pictures as stamps.
It is even possible to 'smear' lots of identical images while holding the mousebutton pressed.
The drawing surface can be deleted by filling it with any available color.
Unfortunately there's no saving or printing option (yet)!

Kaleidoscope
Enjoy beautiful mandala-style ornaments with this Kaleidoscope program.
You can let the shapes rotate, draw only outlines, change the angle and create an "explode effect".
It's amazing how many different scenes you can get from just 6 different shapes (square, rhombus, triangles, circle and star).
